This comment means a lot to me. I read it several times, and I still don't know what quite to say except an effusive thank you. That I got a genuine 'wow' - that it works for people in multiple ways and can slap someone silly after multiple viewings - just, wow, I feel privileged to have made anything that works that well.

It's stupid, maybe, to care this much about a fictional TV show, but Star Trek is so lengthy. It has a genuine weight to it that I think is difficult to replicate among any other fandom. In some ways it is First Fandom, the ur-fandom, the mother of why we're even here. It means so much to so many people. And if in some way this video talks about all of that in a way that moves people, I'm really happy I pressed through it and finished the damn thing.
